It seems that both parties were intoxicated - would have that any bearing on the validity of what either one of them said at the time? Not sure being incapable makes you compliant.

Absolutely! Must be difficult if you get called to a situation and both parties are four sheets to the wind. Couldn't do your job for even one day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he'd taken a swing at a bloke in a social situation, to be honest, I wouldn't have been that surprised - although I have tried to give him the benefit of the doubt with regards to being a reformed character (sort of). This is a whole different level for me - I am trying to remain open minded until everything is out in the public arena, and both sides have been heard. Obviously something happened, but, with alcohol involved, either account could be a bit inacurate. I want justice to be served correctly, whichever way the hammer falls. If our manager is found guilty of this, then of course he's out of the door straight away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was your stance when it became apparent, beyond any reasonable doubt, that Darrell wanked off dogs as a pass time..? Was that OK, because no harm was done, or did you feel that was a tad inappropriate..? Edited July 26, 2021 by Bar BS3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My stance is that you're a bit of a knob to quote a post about domestic violence in order that that you can ask such an infantile question. 23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There doesn't appear to have been any sort of Court Order preventing him from being at the family home. Regardless of what did or didn't happen, there's bound to be stress within the family - a bit left field, but I think it's healthier for all concerned for him to be occupied in Bristol for the majority of the week at the moment. If he's suspended, how would that affect his relationship with the Board if an "innocent" verdict was the outcome? I also don't know enough about employment law in these situations. Would be just Rovers' luck to suspend him and then find themselves up before an employment tribunal - it's the sort of the thing we do! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly something went on, someone witnessed someone grabbing the neck and kick to head, someone phoned the police, someone ended up with an injury, Barton has already used ‘alcohol’ and ‘exaggeration’ as an excuse. just because someone hasn’t formally made a claim of assault doesn’t mean it didn’t happen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexukhc Posted July 26, 2021 Report Share Posted July 26, 2021 I got attacked last weekend, by someone close to me, I was never asked to press charges or drop any, they didn’t ask for a statement but they saw my injuries were severe enough to charge the person with a custodial caution for assault, as he admitted to it, he has no previous but has to do an alcohol awareness course in due course because of it if he misses that, it’s a bloody zoom meeting ffs, it’ll go to court Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlastonburyRed Posted July 26, 2021 Report Share Posted July 26, 2021 I can’t imagine that statement will stay in place for long, but at the very least they could have gone for ‘victim not supporting the prosecution’ rather than ‘victimless crime’. That phrase is, understandably, like a red rag to a bull for many involved in domestic abuse campaigning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression that his Mrs had phones 999 claiming to have been kicked in the head by JB. I think we've all jumped the gun somewhat here and it now appears that JB was just unfortunate that whilst out with his wife, police officers, for no reason, without any claim of such action, decided to go door knocking in the hope of bumping into JB, at which time they were going to accuse him of having kicked his wife in the head. It all seems a tad harsh now, as that (according to BRFC) appears to be exactly how it played out..! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
